-*- SIMPLY STUDENTS -* Students, check out this box each week for upcoming student events. Many of our regular student activities are no longer meeting for the semester. Please check this column in the future for upcoming summer activities. We currently plan to have Catholicism Wow, Rosary Group and Movie Nights. Also consider getting involved with our parish groups like Christian Meditation (Mon, 7:30pm) or Emmaus Scripture Sharing (Thu, 7:30pm). UPDATE ON FR. GEORGE FITZGERALD, CSP You may have noticed that Fr. George hasn t been around. He came back from a Yellowstone vacation ill that worsened into severe pneumonia. He has been in the hospital s intensive care unit since Tuesday (5/8) aided by a ventilator and much antibiotics. To minimize exposure to germs in his severely weakened state, please no visitors for now. As of Monday, he is finally showing some improvements but still has a long ways to go. Please keep him in your prayers. UNIVERSITY STUDENTS GRADUATING THIS YEAR Congratulations on an amazing job.

WITH GRATEFUL HEARTS - Our very own Howard Fischer will be stepping down as the stellar president of our parish council.

Baptisms, RCIA, Marriage Prep, Refugee, Donuts & Coffee- to mention just a few of the areas in which he has served. He also led the pack for the 50 th Anniversary Celebration, has helped on the Newmanity work days, was one of the MCs for the recent Community Talent Show & Tell Event, and has always lent his good humor to every situation. We are grateful, Howard, for all the blessings you are! KNEELERS REPAIR & MAINTENANCE-If you have the time and talent, we would very much appreciate your help in repairing the chapel kneelers as they disconnect, finding and purchasing the appropriate hardware, and maintaining them as needed. If you feel called to this key task, and to helping ensure a peaceful worship space for us all, please contact Colleen at colleenlenord@gmail.com
